This little-known and short-lived western series featured Pat Gallagher (Russell Hayden) and his sidekick Stoney Crockett (Jackie Coogan) – Government Secret Service agents in the Old West, whose authority superseded that of local or state law enforcement.
Together, Pat and Stoney – “courageous and resourceful agents for law and order” – worked undercover on dangerous special assignments.
Phil Arnold provided regular comic relief as a sometimes associate of Gallagher and Crockett – an actor and entertainer called Zerbo.
The series was filmed in colour (although it was broadcast in black & white) in a plan by the producers to be able to re-sell the show to sponsors once colour TV was introduced.
